On Sept. 3 the Unified Government of Cusseta‑Chattahoochee County adopted its 2024 tax levy, setting the county maintenance-and-operation millage at 8.512 mills, a school millage of 16.99 mills, and a total ad valorem tax levy of 25.50 mills after local rollbacks. Chairman Charles Coffey introduced and the Commission approved the resolution directing the clerk to transmit a certified copy to the Tax Commissioner as required by state law.
The resolution shows the county calculated rollbacks for local option sales tax (15.06 mills) and insurance premium tax (0.00 listed in the resolution) that reduced the gross maintenance-and-operation rate to the actual county millage of 8.512. The text entered into the record instructs the clerk to apply homestead and other legally required exemptions and to publish the levy as required by statute.
The motion to adopt the millage was seconded and passed unanimously by the four commissioners present. No additional discussion or amendments to the millage figures were recorded in the meeting minutes.
Next procedural steps required by the resolution include the clerk’s certification to the Tax Commissioner and any statutorily required public notices; the resolution text itself was entered into the record at the meeting.
